Secret Fantasy Star

I'm an Avon rep and the first sample they gave me when I started was this perfume. It smells sweet yet fresh, I though I would like the original just as much but I don't. I waited a bit and I got it with an offer of two bottles and a face cream. It's such a fun fragrance to wear for summer, it doesn't smell of alcohol, unfortunately it only lasts like half an hour on me.

This is sweet without inducing headache. I got the orange, plum and sweet note. On my skin the longevity is amazing, it lasts more than 5 hours. The picture doesn't do the bottle justice. The real bottle is so adorable and is made of glass. Projection is also surprisingly moderate to strong depending on the amount you spray. Lovely.

I love the smell of this parfum. It is so fruity and sweet at the same time. Somehow the lasting of this scent isn't that bad for me. One of my favorites

The botle is very cute with a litle star and is so girly and fun in my purse is a real beauty a bijuu.At the begining a smell blood orange that minute by minute turn more and more cotton candish and more valilarish and a litle powdery, as the time passes by it turns more and more cotton candysh powdery vanilla. i have to say dar during this all projection of smell the boold orange and dark fruit note never disapears but it turn less and less accentuated by the time passes. the smell is so lovely fruity cotton candys and vanilla like a cookie laboratory and i can't stop sniffing this one. Is true that remindes me of britney fantasy but i fout the fantasy realy nauseating and hard to wear it is too overpowering, powdery that hurts my nose and not in a good way and it has that disturbing note that make it smell disgusting on my skin. Here i am refering to fantasy by britney in that way. This one from avon is very easy to wear and i feel realy good wearing it it smell like bon bons with some realy soft flowers indeed the ideea is similar to fantasy but this one is better on my skin, fruttier and softer.So this one from avon on me smells better than fantasy by B.S.. I did say that on myself smells that way, perfume do differ from skin to skin. I feel realy like a sweet gilrl when i wear it and i am glad that here is not very famous because in that way i can smell that way that no one around me can smell, like an inocent girl that is sorounded by sweet litle pinky candies. And by the way way the lasting power is realy good on me i don't know if i put too much or why the smell did resist on me so much but when i got too sleep i could still smell a realy strong scent of this perfume. And i did put this one on me in the morning. I have to say that i don't judge a perfume by the company that made this a have a lot of oriflame and avon favourites but also designer and famous perfumes. For the price tag this realy was a good investment perfect for shopping days or going to town eating a cookye or having a nice good fancy cocktail near you.

The first thing you should know about SECRET FANTASY STAR is that it has powdered vanilla notes from top notes to base. The mandarin goes with the vanilla perfectly, but it does seem a tad watery on me. I can't detect any plum at all, but there is something else underneath the watery mandarin - peach perhaps? The peony note develops very quickly and lasts through the perfume's wear, I think that the already existing powdery notes help strengthen the note and carry it. The jasmine is milder, but is also easy to pick out and a bit of mandarin seems to be tangled up with it. Avon has only listed two floral notes because, apart from a soft hint of rose, that is all that really stands out. The base is a airy mix of powdered vanilla and sandalwood, with a touch of musk running through it. There is still a lingering bit of peony which carries down with the rest of the perfume as it's fairly strong, but I can't detect any remaining florals after a few hours. It's an Avon mass market release and is a EDT concentration, but the lasting power is actually pretty good for the price; it wears for four to five hours on average. It wears much better then the original Secret Fantasy on me. This is the EXACT same fragrance as when I go though to the beauty department in Victoria's Secret; it's a blend of a few different perfumes, including the gentle floral notes of Ooh La La, the powdery vanilla overtones in Love Rocks and the soft fruits notes found in Victoria's Secret Angel. One thing that it doesn't remind me of is the original Secret Fantasy, as that focused on the fruit notes and they were so strong that they smothered all of the floral notes. The original also lacked the intensity to powdery tones of the vanilla that SECRET FANTASY STAR does very well.
